South Carolina College- and Career-Ready (SCCCR) Geometry Overview In South Carolina College- and Career-Ready (SCCCR) Geometry, students build on the conceptual knowledge and skills they mastered in previous mathematics courses in areas such as algebraic thinking, geometry, measurement, probability, and proportional reasoning. The Key Concepts in this course are listed below.
Constructions, Transformations, and Coordinate Geometry (G.CTC) Reasoning and Proof (G.RP) Lines and Angles (G.LA) Triangles (G.T) Quadrilaterals and Other Polygons (G.QP) Circles (G.C) Three-Dimensional Figures (G.TD)
Standards in the Key Concept Constructions, Transformations, and Coordinate Geometry are meant to be applied throughout the course in order for students to make critical connections among geometric relationships synthetically (without coordinates) and analytically (with coordinates). Students also construct logical arguments and formal proofs of geometric relationships throughout the course as they develop their deductive reasoning skills and understanding of more sophisticated theorems based on simpler axioms introduced early in the course. In this course students are expected to apply mathematics in meaningful ways to solve problems that arise in the workplace, society, and everyday life through the process of modeling. Mathematical modeling involves creating appropriate equations, graphs, diagrams, or other mathematical representations to analyze real-world situations and solve problems. Use of mathematical tools is important in creating and analyzing the mathematical representations used in the modeling process. In order to represent and solve problems, students should learn to use a variety of mathematical tools and technologies, such as a compass, a straightedge, graph paper, patty paper, graphing utilities, and dynamic geometry software.
